Prosthodontics in San Diego, CA

Missing teeth, cracked teeth, and teeth that are badly damaged can hamper your appearance and make it difficult to chew. These dental imperfections can also cause overall wellness issues by causing jaw pain, excessive wear and tear on teeth, and harming your self-esteem. Prosthodontic treatment in San Diego from Dr. Sabine Purps at Fine Dentistry in Mission Hills can help you get relief from problems caused by broken, damaged, and missing teeth.

Dental Prosthetics and Prosthodontic Treatment

Prosthodontics help patients who have suffered from tooth loss, damage to teeth, or accidents that resulted in broken or misshapen teeth. In the way that a prosthetic limb would help someone regain function, a dental prosthetic can replace a lost tooth or enhance a weakened tooth for improved biting and chewing.

Restorations with dental prosthetics can be done with a variety of procedures, including:

Improve Biting and chewing with Dental treatment

• Dental Implants – An implant is a whole replacement for a missing tooth, including the root and crown. The base of the implant is surgically added into the bone at the site of a missing or extracted tooth to help make your smile whole again.

• Crowns – A crown can be used as a replacement for the entire top part of a missing tooth or can reinforce weakened teeth that have been damaged by severe decay or injury. Our crowns can be made from a variety of materials to support the best results.

• Porcelain Veneers – A veneer is a thin slice of porcelain that can be added to the front of teeth in order to hide surface flaws.

• Implant-Supported Dentures – A denture is a prosthetic that can replace an entire arch of lost or extracted teeth. When supported by dental implants, your full-mouth prosthetic becomes stronger and more comfortable to provide a renewed oral function.

Dr. Sabine A. Purps has years of experience in providing prosthodontic care and believes in a root cause, comprehensive approach. Dr. Purps works with you to uncover the root problems of your concerns and develop the best treatment plan to meet your needs.
